SOLUTION: Wake Treo with side button
|

| Harlan Messinger 2007-03-13, 10:33 am |
| I asked yesterday whether there was a way to configure the Treo 700W to
wake up when I hold the side button to activate Voice Command while the
phone is in my belt clip, facing in. No answers as of today, and
everything I found via Google on the subject said there isn't a way to
do it.
The solution: Press both volume buttons and the side button
simultaneously. Don't hold them, just press them once with a sort of
three-fingered salute. It's a bit awkward, but it wakes up the phone. It
also launches the volume control applet, so wait a few seconds for that
to disappear. Then you can press and hold the side button to use Voice
Command (assuming you've programmed it for that).

Strange, it worked consistently the day I wrote this, and then yesterday
I couldn't get it to work--but, then, my Treo also somehow came
unpaired from my Bluetooth headset, whatever that was about. This
morning it works again.
